Summary
Superman (David Corenswet) returns as a fully formed hero, dropping into an international crisis where his actions—like stopping a dangerous global conflict—spark both admiration and controversy. As he confronts Lex Luthor’s schemes and defends democratic values, Lois Lane (Rachel Brosnahan) investigates deeper political tensions. The film also features cameos from Guy Gardner (Nathan Fillion), Hawkgirl (Isabela Merced), Mister Terrific (Edi Gathegi), and Metamorpho (Anthony Carrigan), all leading up to a broader DC Universe introduction.

    Agreed, really my only beef was pretty minor and that was when Perry White was getting the gang together for the T-ship nobody went “Wait, where’s Clark?”

    “Oh, Clark’s not here? Fine, Lombard can come…”

      Yeah, that’s definitely a good point. I didn’t notice it as the events happen quickly and didn’t let me question that ha ha
